Frequently moved during childhood due to the hobbies of his architect father and mother, who co-managed a business. Struggled to fit in with his peers from elementary school age and began studying painting under his father's influence. Since then, he has found his place within his paintings.

After graduating from Tama Art University's Oil Painting program in 2001, he continued to engage with painting. It was in September 2022 that he felt everything “clicked into place.” Having felt a tangible sense of accomplishment from five oil paintings of faces created over twenty years, he now approaches his art each day with a renewed sense of freshness.​
